Summary of Proceedings

Stockton Planning Commission Meeting - February 24, 2022

The Stockton Planning Commission met on February 24, 2022 at 5:45 PM. The meeting included a consent calendar with minutes approval, an informational presentation on the 2021 General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Reports, commissioner comments, and adjournment at 6:30 PM. No public hearings, new business, or unfinished business were on the agenda.

Consent Calendar

  • Approval of Minutes: The commission approved the minutes from the January 27, 2022 meeting by a 4-0 vote (Motion 2022-02-24-0301). The January 13, 2022 minutes were continued to the next meeting because only four commissioners were present and the chair abstained (having missed that meeting), leaving insufficient votes for approval.

Public Comments & Testimony

  • No public comments were made. One public comment card was submitted but the individual did not attend the meeting.

Discussion Items

  • Informational Presentation on the 2021 General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Reports: Matt Diaz, Advanced Planning Manager, presented the state-required annual reports. Key points included:
    • The city issued 888 building permits for new housing in 2021, the highest number in the 2015-2023 reporting period (150% above previous years).
    • Cumulative permits since 2015 total approximately 3,300 units, well below the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) capacity of 11,824 units required by 2023.
    • The city must maintain zoning capacity for its RHNA share but is not required to build the units; the market drives construction.
    • Discussion covered RHNA methodology, density calculations (e.g., 108 units per acre in the downtown core), the importance of over-designating capacity to allow for downzoning without state penalties, and strategies to meet future RHNA cycles.
    • Commissioners asked about site locations, infrastructure impacts, and the potential of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and duplexes to contribute to housing counts.
  • Commissioner Comments: Commissioner Mallet expressed that state housing mandates are
